Apr-15-08 Palatnik vs Geller, 1980    Xuorarch: 17.Qf5 should be played, not 17.Qh5... 15.Rxg7+ Kxg7 16.Qg4+ Kh8 17.Qh5? f5 18.Bxf5 Kg7 and Black's king escapes via f6.      Apr-08-08 Alekhine vs De Cassio, 1944    Xuorarch: 10...Bxf2+ 11.Kxf2 Qe7 (or e6) 12.Ng5? Qxf6+. White must move the king.      Jan-24-08 Kudrin vs Miles, 1989    Xuorarch: I think 8.Be3 is a pretty good alternative. 8.Be3 Ng6(forced I think) 9. Bc4 Now if 9...Ne5, 10. Nxe5 Bxe5 11.Bxf7+ Kxf7 12. Qh5+      Jan-22-08 Skembris vs S Mariotti, 1981    Xuorarch: I think 13...Qe7 is an interesting possibility. 13...Qe7 14. Bxf4 exf4 but now white can't develop the knight because of Rh3, and black threatens Qc5. In fact I see a Qc5 fork in several lines if white loses the dark squared bishop. e.g. 14. Ne2 Ne6 15. Ng3 Nc5 16. Nxc5 Qxc5. ...      Jan-12-08 Yu Shaoteng vs C Bauer, 2006    Xuorarch: Oops, got the numbering wrong, but thanks for the info.      Aug-31-07 N Bugaev vs Steinitz, 1896    Xuorarch: How can there be no comments on this game?      Apr-04-07 Short vs Sax, 1988    Xuorarch: THE pawn was probably just saying that because he thinks the pun is absurd, not because it offends him. It's not like he's given the pun the litany you've given him. But I guess it is a convenient way to express your superior vocabulary and moral standpoint, not to mention ...      Jan-25-07 I Akimov vs V Kazakov, 2001    Xuorarch: Um, I might be missing something, but why does Black play 12...Bd3? Was he looking at the board upside down?      Jan-22-07 Matulovic vs Asfary, 1972    Xuorarch: After 22...Qd7, White can just do 23.Qf6 (threatening mate), where 23...Nxf6 24.Nxf6+ creates a windmill that wins White two pieces. If 23...g4, then 24.Qh8+ Kg56 25.Qxg8+ Kh5 26.Nf6+ Kh4 27.Bf2#. I really can't find Black's response to 23.Qf6.      Jan-14-07 A Nickel vs H Gnirk, 1986   Xuorarch: Wow. Apparently, e6 really is tricky in this defense, though I have to say that Black made a number of questionable moves here, leaving lots of weak spots.      Jan-07-07 A Nickel vs H Leserer, 1988    Jan-06-07 Tiviakov vs D Kljako, 1989     Jan-05-07 A Nickel vs W Reher, 1988    Jun-26-06 J Mieses vs Marshall, 1903     Jun-26-06 G Neumann vs Mayet, 1866     Jun-25-06 J Tompa vs Plachetka, 1974     Jun-23-06 Gligoric vs Nyback, 2004     Jun-22-06 Larsen vs M Pavlov, 1963     Jun-22-06 Anderssen vs B Suhle, 1860     Jun-22-06 Movsesian vs Zhu Chen, 1998     Jun-22-06 Razuvaev vs Viktor Gurevich, 1969     Jun-21-06 Adorjan vs Ribli, 1979     Jun-21-06 Karpov vs A Zaitsev, 1970     Jun-21-06 Sax vs Minic, 1975     Jun-21-06 Sax vs Adorjan, 1971    Jun-21-06 Averkin vs Kasparov, 1979     Jun-21-06 Polugaevsky vs Tal, 1980     Jun-20-06 R Nezhmetdinov vs M Ujtelky, 1964     Jun-20-06 Turov vs Filippov, 2000    Jun-19-06 Capablanca vs NN, 1918
